PLANNING FOR
THE FUTURE
An ACU education is an investment and one we want to help you afford and earn because a degree will never lose its value. We stand behind the value offered in our premier Christian liberal arts education, ranked as a top university by U.S. News & World Report. More than 90% of ACU students receive one or more types of aid. You can estimate your cost of attendance with our net price calculator.
Scholarships
We rely on the support of alumni, donors, churches, foundations, and corporations to make ACU affordable for you. Scholarships are awarded based on merit, athletic, or music ability and do not need be repaid.
Grants
Grants are need-based financial aid determined by the FAFSA and awarded by the government that do not have to be repaid.
Loans
Loans are financial aid that must be repaid after you graduate and are determined by the FAFSA.
